Save valid busy RX, fast-switch and Companion tuple changes once, then
apply the latest accepted intent at a safe radio gap. Preserve checked-save
rollback, runtime RXEN intent, TempRadio ownership and exact remote reply
delivery. Repair failed preamble compensation without hiding uncertain saves.
Retry WebConfig, MQTT and NimBLE startup failures automatically. Preserve
explicit off choices, OTA ownership and the latest WiFi credentials through
cooperative shutdown. Add regression coverage and update command guides.
Validation: focused host transaction, rollback, ownership and lifecycle suites;
Full RAK4631, Heltec V4 R8 TFT and RC32 packages; representative room, sensor,
LR1110, LR2021, SX1276, STM32WL and ESP-NOW builds. Linked RAK crypto and OTA
workspace checks pass; its complete OTA image uses 712644/712704 bytes.
Let the mesh timed OTA retry guard own byte-identical requests instead of the permanent bridge FIFO. Bind bridge ingress to its primary profile generation and preserve UART reflection/liveness protections. Verified a LoRa to ESP-NOW to LoRa update with outage recovery and install.
Share one bounded WiFi outage and recovery schedule across MQTT, automatic NTP, Companion station ownership and WebConfig. Preserve enabled settings and foreground access while allowing normal sleep after confirmed physical shutdown.
Honor failed SDK client stops before handing off WiFi, protect clean teardown and reconfiguration, and retry transient ESP-NOW channel restoration without repeated disconnects. Add production-method, SDK failure and real sleep regressions to CI.
Validation: native MQTT/NTP/clock/reconnect suites; production power and wrapper failure tests; browser, room HTTP, OTA and combined bridge regressions; Full Heltec V4 repeater, room and companion builds with capability, flash and linked-memory checks.
